New to Voice?

Welcome to Voice Ministries! We are glad you stopped by to check out our Facebook page. To start things off, we would love to share just a bit about Voice – who we are and what we do.

Voice began in the mid 90s as a “meeting place” for those who were burnt out, tired, messed up and needed something different and refreshing. What people found was a vibrant bunch of passionate worshippers and messages of hope and healing and encouragement. It was, as many would come to say, “a cool drink of water in a dry land.” As our journey unfolded, we moved to a place in the woods – surrounded by acres of beautiful fields and trees. This is where the Lord gave the leadership of the ministry a vision to establish a place that people could come and pray and worship at any time of the day or night. In 2003, we began the International House of Prayer-Michiana.

During this time, many facets of Voice Ministries were growing. We began a small food outreach program to those in need. Rooms were set aside for those who needed counsel and healing. We had a horse ranch for a few years with over 20 horses. The Meeting Place was going strong every Tuesday, and the House of Prayer was being established. A church family started growing, and we started Voice Fellowship, which was later renamed to Voice17. This is our community, our family, and Voice17 desires to follow Jesus’ words in John 17, where he says, “Father… make them one as You and I are one…”

So there we were, out at the Camp, our place in the woods. But we were feeling that the Lord was again calling us back into the community. We knew that this ministry needed to be at the heart of Michiana. In 2008, through an amazing set of circumstances, the Lord led us to a huge shopping plaza in Elkhart, on one of the busiest roads, SR19. The plaza had just been remodeled into this phenomenal church facility, and in July, we found ourselves in awe and humble thanksgiving that God allowed us to come to this facility.

For five years we stayed at The Grand Horizon Center and we were able to do so much there – and all under one roof! In early 2013, the owners of the Grand Horizon Center had plans to create a Christian concert and conference venue / community center, so we headed to the Concord Mall in Elkhart/Goshen. It was completely unique and different feel for us, being in the mix of mall life. We enjoyed having people stop in the midst of their shopping to pause and listen to the IHOP-M worship, or come and join in. We know the Lord is causing us to really press in together as community and focus on the vision to which He has called us.

In mid 2017, we moved IHOP-M back to the Camp as we began to remodel it. In July of 2019, we held our first Voice Fellowship service in the newly remodeled IHOP-Michiana.

Each Tuesday night at The Camp, we have Transformation Tuesdays which focuses on practical discipleship, equipping and teaching. Also, the third Tuesday of the month is our Healing and Prophetic night, at which time the Prophetic teams are also on site to pray with those in need and give encouraging words of hope and life.

On Sundays, Voice Fellowship meets at the Camp for a morning service and many come to be a part of this time of worship and word. During the Sunday service, our children meet and worship together as well, and are taught Biblical principles and concepts.

IHOP-Michiana, our house of prayer located at The Camp, continues to grow. We have live worship teams and many opportunities to come and pray, meditate, or sing along with the team. There are times when it is quiet and reflective, and other times that are intense and driven. Our desire is to be a place that fuels your spirit.

There’s so much that goes on here in a week, and really, the best way to understand it is to experience it. We are not a typical ministry. We don’t care about a name or numbers, we just know that God has put us here, in the middle of Michiana, to be a VOICE. A Voice of hope. A Voice of healing. A Voice of worship. A Voice that shouts the message that all of this is about Jesus, and that Jesus is coming back!
